Professor for computer science at @unipb. Head High-Performance Computing group @hit_upb and director of Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing @pc2_upb.

[Center for Advanced Systems Understanding at HZDR @CASUSscience]

Germany's Alliance for National High Performance Computing @nhr_germany kicked off two years ago. In an in-depth interview in the latest @DFN_de bulletin, @CASUSscience Director @DynamicsCondMat talks about the progress made & the challenges ahead. #HPC ➡️ https://t.co/M31LTvlDFz

[Thomas D. Kühne @DynamicsCondMat]

Read about "Computing and Compressing Electron Repulsion Integrals on FPGAs" in our recent manuscript with @plessl and @pc2_upb:

[NERSC @NERSC]

DYK @unipb researchers reached the computing milestone of one quintillion operations per second (exaops) when they used @NERSC's Perlmutter #HPC to simulate the COVID-19 spike protein using a novel mixed-precision method?

@tiborja @kennyog @pc2_upb Not straight forward for researchers outside Germany, unfortunately. If there was cooperation with a German group, things would be different.

I will take his advice to heart and accept more interesting papers.

If you do research in CS, I highly recommend to read his article.

@LeeEdwardE published a great article on the destructive rejection culture at CS conferences:

His point is very valid. The primacy of novelty over interestingness has promoted countless articles that are boring or inconsequential. 1/2

[Christian Plessl @plessl]

@DynamicsCondMat Dieser Film scheint sehr populär zu sein, so oft wie sie den wiederholen. Wenn die erst mal einen Film vom anderen Ende des Sees haben.

@sciebo Gibt es eine Sciebo Status Seite auf der man sehen kann, ob aktuell Störungen des Dienstes vorliegen?

[Christian Plessl @plessl]

This is very exciting! Bringing us one step closer to reconfigurable fabrics in general-purpose CPUs. And mixed-precision data paths can have much broader applications in scientific computing than AI inference.

[AMD Embedded @AMDembedded]

AMD plans to integrate the leadership Xilinx AI Engine across @AMDRyzen, AMD #EPYC and Xilinx Versal products for small and mid-size AI models.
